Abstract

The present invention provides a method of controlling an unmanned aerial vehicle by a system for controlling a mission of the unmanned aerial vehicle on the basis of a user position. Herein the method includes acquiring information related to a position of the terminal; performing authentication for the unmanned aerial vehicle on the basis of the information related to the position of the terminal; and, when the authentication is completed, transmitting the information related to the position of the terminal to the unmanned aerial vehicle.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A method of controlling an unmanned aerial vehicle by a terminal in a system for controlling a mission of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the method comprising:
 acquiring information related to a position for the terminal;   performing authentication for the unmanned aerial vehicle on the basis of the information related to the position of the terminal; and   when the authentication is completed, transmitting the information related to the position of the terminal to the unmanned aerial vehicle.   
     
     
         2 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the information related to the position of the terminal is transmitted to the unmanned aerial vehicle on the basis of a MAVlink packet. 
     
     
         3 . The method of  claim 2 , wherein the information related to the position is transmitted on the basis of at least one of a first format and a second format based on the MAVlink packet. 
     
     
         4 . The method of  claim 3 , wherein the first format is a legacy format based on the MAVlink packet, and the second format is a format based on the information related to the position. 
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 4 , wherein when the information related to the position is transmitted to the unmanned aerial vehicle on the basis of the first format, the information related to the position is included as a predetermined value in the first format. 
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 4 , wherein when the information related to the position is transmitted to the unmanned aerial vehicle on the basis of the second format, a new value is set on the basis of the information related to the position, and the information related to the position is transmitted via the set new value. 
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 1 , wherein the information related to the position includes at least one of latitude information, longitude information, elevation information, x speed on the ground, y speed on the ground, a heading direction, position update flag information, time information, and safety distance offset information of the terminal. 
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 7 , wherein when the position update flag information is a first value, the information related to the position includes only the position update flag information and the time information. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 7 , wherein when the position update flag information is a second value, the information related to the position includes all of the latitude information, the longitude information, the elevation information, the x speed on the ground, the y speed on the ground, the heading direction, the position update flag information, the time information, and the safety distance offset information. 
     
     
         10 . A method of controlling an unmanned aerial vehicle in a system for controlling a mission of an unmanned aerial vehicle, the method comprising:
 receiving information related to a position from a terminal; and   performing mission control on the basis of the information related to the position,   wherein authentication for the unmanned aerial vehicle is performed on the basis of the information related to the position of the terminal, and when the authentication is completed, the information related to the position of the terminal is transmitted to the unmanned aerial vehicle.   
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the unmanned aerial vehicle performs an automatic return mission to a position of the terminal on the basis of the information related to the position. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 10 , wherein the information related to the position of the terminal is transmitted to the unmanned aerial vehicle on the basis of a MAVlink packet. 
     
     
         13 . The method of  claim 12 , wherein the information related to the position is transmitted on the basis of at least one of a first format and a second format based on the MAVlink packet. 
     
     
         14 . The method of  claim 13 , wherein the first format is a legacy format based on the MAVlink packet, and the second format is a format based on the information related to the position. 
     
     
         15 . The method of  claim 14 , wherein when the information related to the position is transmitted to the unmanned aerial vehicle on the basis of the first format, the information related to the position is included as a predetermined value in the first format. 
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 14 , wherein when the information related to the position is transmitted to the unmanned aerial vehicle on the basis of the second format, a new value is set on the basis the information related to the position, and the information related to the position is transmitted via the set new value. 
     
     
         17 . The method of  claim 11 , wherein the information related to the position includes at least one of latitude information, longitude information, elevation information, x speed on the ground, y speed on the ground, a heading direction, position update flag information, time information, and safety distance offset information of the terminal. 
     
     
         18 . The method of  claim 17 , wherein when the position update flag information is a first value, the information related to the position includes only the position update flag information and the time information. 
     
     
         19 . The method of  claim 17 , wherein when the position update flag information is a second value, the information related to the position includes all of the latitude information, the longitude information, the elevation information, the x speed on the ground, the y speed on the ground, the heading direction, the position update flag information, the time information, and the safety distance offset information. 
     
     
         20 . A system for controlling a mission of an unmanned aerial vehicle, the system comprising:
 an unmanned aerial vehicle; and   a terminal controlling the unmanned aerial vehicle,   wherein the terminal acquires information related to a position,   the terminal performs authentication for the unmanned aerial vehicle on the basis of the information related to the position, and   the terminal transmits the information related to the position of the terminal to the unmanned aerial vehicle when the authentication is completed.
